Connection to a USB Storage Device
•Avoid frequently turning the power on/off to the USB storage
device, or connecting/disconnecting the cable too often. Doing so
may result in the operation of the instrument “freezing” or hang-
ing up. While the instrument is accessing data (such as in the
Save and Delete operations), do NOT unplug the USB cable, do
NOT remove the media from the device, and do NOT turn the
power off to either device. Doing so may corrupt the data on either
or both devices.
CAUTION
Some USB memory devices may require more current than the
instrument can supply, causing the instrument’s over-current pro-
tection function to be activated and making it impossible to use
the device. If this occurs “OverCurrent” will appear in the lower-
right area of the MAIN display. To restore normal operation
remove the USB device from the USB TO DEVICE connector and
turn the instrument’s power off and then back on again.
CAUTION
